MAN EXPOSES HIMSELF TO 8-YEAR-OLD

A man wearing no pants indecently exposed himself Monday in Elkridge to an 8-year-old girl, whom he beckoned to his car under the pretense of asking for directions, county police said.

The child reported that the man, in his late 20s, was parked along the 6300 block of Ducketts Lane when he asked her for directions shortly before 3 p.m., police said.

When the girl approached the car, she noticed that the man was naked from the waist down, police said. She then ran away and the man did not try to pursue her.

Police said the suspect, a white male with black curly hair, was reported driving a small blue foreign car.
